The main evidence that states that montresor felt remorse in the end is when he went to check the bell. According to the story, “The Cask of Amontillado”, Montresor initially doesn’t feel remorse until the job was completed. Montresor created a step by step plan to fulfil his revenge on Fortunato. Montresor was willing to go to any extent in order to fulfil his quench. He tries to act like he was concerned about Fortunato’s health.
Edgar believed whole heartedly in his brother’s words. Edgar should be able to trust his brother, but instead, Edmond betrays that trust by lying. This type of relationship between the two brothers shapes Edgar’s sense of justice. Edgar has a very noble sense of justice. He doesn’t treat justice the same as revenge, like some other characters do (for example how Lear wanted to hang Regan and Goneril for how they treated him).
Therefore, according to his logic, he had the right to do as he pleased. This furthers the reader’s opinion of Raskolnikov as an immoral person. However, there are also reasons throughout the novel, especially towards the end, for the audience to view Raskolnikov as a moral man who may have committed some sins, but deserves forgiveness for he is truly a good person at heart. First and foremost of these reasons is Raskolnikov clearly shows remorse for his actions. His confession and frequent fainting spells are emissions of guilt and guilt is only felt by those who know what they did was wrong, and if someone knows that the sin they committed was immoral, they must have morals to begin with.
“THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could; but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge.” (Poe 1). The insult that hurt Montresor’s pride and drove him to revenge was not stated. His yearning for revenge was directly linked to his family motto, “Nemo me impune lacessit.”(Poe 5). which means no one attacks me with impunity. The motto made it obvious that Montresor’s ancestors had just as much pride as he does, therefore they would react to an attack in the same fashion.
Because he wants to help his lover, Tamora, get revenge against Titus? That might be the reason, but Aaron never says much. There's got to be some better explanation. We could say that Aaron's only motive for going after the Andronicus family is that he just likes to be bad and evil. When he says “Vengeance is in my heart” I think he means that most of the motives his actions are for “love” but not necessarily for his love over Tamora but also his love for being bad.
The problem is, it's not very likely to be "done when 'tis done," and Macbeth knows this, too. He knows that--as we say--what goes around comes around, that acts of violence are "Bloody instructions, which, being taught, return / To plague the inventor" (1.7.9-10). Of course, Macbeth has good reason to be afraid. In a warrior society such as his, there would be plenty of kith and kin eager to avenge the murder of any man, even if he weren't a king. To put it bluntly, Macbeth is about to chicken out because he thinks that he's likely to get caught.
Montresor knew his limits for his revenge, that he was sure to not jeopardize his life for a moment's pleasure. Montresor's statement "At length I would be avenged, this was a point definitely settled - but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk" lets the reader know
Through the actions of these two men, Poe illustrates that a man’s pride leads to his own demise. Fortunato’s pride leads him into the trap that Montresor had laid out for him. Montresor sees Fortunato’s pride as a weakness and uses this against him. Montresor makes up a cask of Amontillado, knowing that Fortunato will go to all lengths to taste it. To make sure that Fortunato stays, Montresor plays with his pride even more by saying that he plans to have Luchesi taste the wine because “if anyone has a critical turn, it is he” (211).
However, Curley threatens “(he’s) going to shoot the bastard (himself) even if (he’s) only got one hand. (He’s) gonna get ‘im.” Although Curley’s threat seems to put Lennie in imminent danger, these are only words. There was nothing to say that Curley would have definitely killed him, he may have only tortured him. George saved Lennie from a potential death. In addition to Curley though, George’s action can be seen as an act of justice as he kept others out of harm’s way from Lennie’s inexcusable but accidental strength.
The moral of this is that when you are trying to avoid something you hate be careful not to become what you actually hate. Sometimes we become something we are trying to stay away from probably because we are so obsessed with revenge or staying above that person, other times because we are so obsessed with revenge with turn into the person who hurt us. This movie helped me realize that the only way we can help the situation is by acting in the opposite spirit. As it was mentioned in the introduction in most cases the forgiveness is the key even though it doesn’t seems like it would help us in a situation when we’ve been hurt by someone. As Marcus Aurelius wrote: “The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the
